Dr. Huang co-authored a study on Nature Communications explaining US rainfall changes

A comprehensive understanding of human-induced changes to rainfall is essential for water resource management and infrastructure design. However, at regional scales, existing detection and attribution studies are rarely able to conclusively identify human influence on precipitation. In a new study, Dr. Huanping Huang and his collaborators conclude that the conflicting literature on historical precipitation trends can be explained by offsetting aerosol and greenhouse gas effects.
